“Kerri was a wonderful sitter for my 2 kitties! She had great communication from start to finish, showed up on time, left a nice update after each visit and sent me lots of cute photos of my furbabies! I felt confident they were in good hands while I was away. I would definitely hire Kerri again.”

About: Beyond just walking, I will engage with your pet through play and interaction, ensuring they have a safe, fun, and stimulating experience. I am willing to accommodate smaller indoor pets that need feeding or basic care. Just ask and we can discuss any special arrangements needed for your pets! Currently, I have a flexible schedule and am open to entertaining and taking care of your pets from the early morning until the late afternoon hours. With any pet, I will take every precaution to ensure their utmost safety and the safety of any other animals or people we encounter. For any home or yard entered, doors or gates must remain closed and locked and will be triple-checked each time. I will have basic questions about each pet that I may need to know or be aware of to ensure the best experience all around.
“Nathaniel is great with Cooper and Finnly. My dogs are well cared for. Nathaniel is a great at communicating in a very timely manner. Always courteous and respectful. We’re glad found him!”

“Cynthia went above and beyond when caring for my 2 kitties. She is a cat person herself and it definitely shows! She had excellent communication throughout her visits and gave very detailed reports cards with lots of pictures. Her prices are great as well, which makes her even better! I will definitely be using her again in the future!”


About: I’ve owned animals most of my life but recently started traveling full time and have been house/pet sitting around the US since October 2025. It’s been amazing getting to know and spend time with so many different pets along the way! I travel full time so wherever I’m at, my schedule can be very flexible to allow for the best routine for your pets! I am available for overnight sits, daytime care, walks, drop-ins and adventure walks. Since I travel full time, pet care will need to be done in the clients home. I have many references from others I’ve sat for stating that I’m respectful of your home, taking care of your belongings and your animals, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: Hi I’m Lynette. I’m a Naval Officer in San Diego. Walking dogs and checking in on cats is a good way for me to make friends and stay active. I’m in the military so I know all about dicipline and schedules and so on and so forth. My availability is weekdays after 2pm and most weekends. I want a dog myself but my work schedule doesn’t allow me to keep one full time. I see this experience as a great way for me to be able to interact with the best pets the world can offer while also doing my job. I’m really looking forward to serving your dogs needs, thank you for the generous opportunity, it is appreciated.
“Absolutely LOVED Tijera!! She was so great with my dog who is 13! My dog instantly bonded with her and Tijera was extremely loving and caring with her. I would hire Tijera again in a heartbeat! She will absolutely love on your dog like they are her own. :-)”

“Marielle was super attentive and thorough with the care of our two cats! They are very social, so it was important to have someone to both feed them and give them some attention while we were away- and she did just that! Got updates and pictures the whole time of food and play times. We will definitely have Marielle care for Faith and Nathaniel again :) Thank you!!”

Otay Ranch pet parents share their Rover experiences
Rose took exceptional care of our two cats while we were away! She gave fun updates and photos each day during check in. It was clear she really enjoyed just hanging out with them, which always provides that extra peace of mind that they in good hands. We hope she’s available for all of our future travels and we don’t have to book with anyone else!

Eylana-Mae is wonderful. Her attentiveness, knowledge and kindness was a breath of fresh air. This was the first time using Rover and to have her care for our babies really gave us faith in this app. She made sure to communicate with us when we were out of town, she asked questions and made sure not only we were comfortable but our babies. She is super knowledgeable and professional. We will definitely be looking for her again. Seriously the kindest soul.
